The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) in Ekiti says it will organise seminars for secondary school students, to educate them on dangers of taking hard drugs.
The Public Relations Officer of NDLEA, Mr. Peter Njoku, said this on Friday in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria(NAN) in Ado-Ekiti.
He said the seminars would be held in both public and private schools, to prevent and protect them from taking Indian hemp and other hard drugs.
According to him, the students will be taught the meaning of drugs, types of drugs, method of drugs administration and factors that lead to drug abuse.
He emphasised that the agency would continue to hold seminars in the schools until the numbers of students that indulged in taking hard drugs were reduced.
Njoku said that seminars for tertiary institutions in the state would begin in the middle of the year, to enable the students to cover up for the set back in the academic calender.
He, however, appealed to secondary school principals to assist the agency in teaching their students dangers of taking hard drugs and Indian hemp
